Volume 6 The Situation of War Chapter 58 The Mentality of a Great Power
The battle between them has made many people see hope...
Just one day later, more people had to admit that South Korea's "performance" was too "captivating".
It has to be admitted that South Korea is not only a country that is eager for quick success and instant benefits, but also a nation that does not know how to learn from lessons.
On the first day of the war, South Korea suffered a crushing defeat because of its quick success and instant benefits, and suffered heavy losses that should not have happened. Just two days later, South Korea made the same mistake again.
The submarine successfully attacked the Japanese aircraft carrier battle group, making South Korea forget the lesson.
On the 5th, just as dawn, the South Korean Air Force dispatched hundreds of combat aircraft and six Hawkeye 2000 early warning aircraft (in fact, 2 are e-2ds of the US military stationed in South Korea) to attack the USS Kaga aircraft carrier battle group of the Japanese Navy. The Japanese Air Force, who had been prepared for a long time, responded with the carrier-based aviation force with all its strength, and did not allow the South Korean Air Force to gain any advantage.
Nearly 40 combat aircraft were lost in the morning, and South Korea was unable to restore its sanity.
In the afternoon, the South Korean Air Force dispatched hundreds of combat aircraft again, and the South Korean Navy also dispatched a speedboat equipped with anti-ship missiles to launch a "suicide" attack on the Japanese aircraft carrier battle group. The result is conceivable that in addition to the 37 fighter jets being shot down, nine speedboats were sunk by anti-ship missiles launched by Japanese carrier-based fighters.
The crazy attack not only made Japan feel pressure, but also made South Korea feel pressure.
In the evening of that day, Japan adjusted its deployment and asked the "Kaga" aircraft carrier battle group to retreat to the Tsunaga Naval Base to avoid becoming a target of the South Korean Navy and Air Force again. At night, the amphibious combat fleet sent away the last batch of supplies in the active area near Dokdo and embarked on a voyage back to Fukuoka.
From this point of view, Japan is very "sane".
After adopting the tactic of retreating to advance, it will not only reduce the pressure on the air force, but also give pilots who have not received enough rest for three consecutive days. It will also force South Korea to launch a more crazy attack, which is equivalent to a self-dead attack. It will consume a lot of South Korea's combat capabilities and end the military conflict as soon as possible.
As long as the losses continue to intensify, South Korea will lose its ability to fight back within a week.
In this case, the most rational way is not to attack desperately, but to adjust the deployment, concentrate your strength, and strive to fight back to Dokdo in an attack. Even if the hope is very slim, as long as the army can be sent back to Dokdo, it can force Japan to turn defense into offense and create evidence of Japan's attack on South Korea's land, thus dragging the United States into the water.
The problem is that Park Tae-hyun bets on all his political future.
A "high-profile" statement at night made the people put their hopes on the president, and made the army believe that the president has enough ability to lead South Korea to win the final victory. If South Korea gives up the counterattack, even if the people don't let him step down, the army will let him get out.
There must be a counterattack, and it is a continuous counterattack.
During the daytime battle, Park Tae-hyun besieged the air force and the sea surface ships. At night, Park Tae-hyun besieged the submarine that poses the greatest threat to Japan.
Under Park Tae-hyun's personal order, all six AIP conventional submarines arrived at the war zone participated in the battle.
However, Korean submarines have no such good luck anymore.
The first thing that was unlucky was that the "Sun Yuanyi" class submarine arrived from the mountains. In order to reach the attack waters on time, the two submarines ran at maximum speed during the ferry. Not only was the noise shocking, but they also used up all the electricity in the battery. Before arriving at the battlefield, the 2~ submarine had been discovered by a Japanese submarine ambushed near the battlefield. Before the 2~ submarine fired anti-ship missiles on the "Kaga" aircraft carrier battle group more than 1c0 kilometers away, the Japanese submarine launched anti-submarine torpedoes.
Without the electric energy provided by the battery, the maximum submarine speed of the Sun Yuanyi class is only 6 knots.
Even the world's most advanced submarines cannot avoid the heavy anti-submarine torpedoes fired by the enemy at a speed of only 6 knots.
There was no suspense in the end. The 2-class submarine "Sun Yuanyi" was hit by torpedo before rushing out of the sea.
The outcome of the South Korean submarines that arrived in the war zone was not much better. Two of the "Sun Yuanyi" class submarines that used missiles to attack the USS Kaga aircraft carrier battle group were immediately discovered by Japanese anti-submarine patrol aircraft nearby after launching missiles. They were then besieged by anti-submarine patrol aircraft and 12 anti-submarine helicopters (all deployed on the Oki Islands, not carrier-based anti-submarine helicopters), and were successively sunk by anti-submarine torpedoes.
2 After launching the torpedo, the Sun Yuanyi-class submarine, which quietly approached the Kaga aircraft carrier, was immediately surrounded by more than 0 anti-submarine warships and dozens of anti-submarine helicopters. The submarine closest to the Kaga was discovered by the sonar of the anti-submarine warship before turning, and was quickly sunk by the rockets of the anti-submarine warship launch site. The submarine slightly farther away from the Kaga ran less than one mile and was caught up by the anti-submarine helicopter, and was then attacked by the near-air anti-submarine torpedo and was blown to pieces.
Overnight, to be precise, South Korea lost half of its submarines within 2 hours!
Compared with the battle results a day ago, it is completely different.
No warship of the Japanese Navy was hit by missiles or torpedoes launched by submarines, and it was killed by just dozens of anti-submarine torpedoes.
Threatening Korean submarine.
Strictly speaking, it was not the Japanese anti-submarine forces that ruined the six submarines, but South Korean President Park Tae-hyun.
As a president who does not understand submarine warfare at all, for personal gain, Park Tae-hyun not only ruined six submarines and more than 1c0 submarine officers and soldiers, but also ruined South Korea's last hope of regaining Dokdo. From a longer-term impact, Park Tae-hyun's behavior forced South Korea to a dead end.
According to regular tactics, six conventional submarines of "Sun Yuanyi" class are fully capable of changing the situation.
All 6 submarines can lurk under the sea for more than 20 days. Even if 6 submarines do nothing, they cannot achieve amazing results day and night. As long as these 6 submarines are active on the battlefield, Japan will use their concerns. Not only will it retreat the Kaga aircraft carrier battle group, but it will also send more anti-submarine forces, thereby capsizing the inexpensive command channel and weakening the combat capabilities of the Japanese Air Force and Navy Air Force.
The greatest value of a submarine is not how many warships the enemy has been killed, but its own existence.
Although submarines are not used to seize the power of sea control, but to destroy the enemy's power of sea control, as long as the Korean submarines operate in the Sea of Japan, the Japanese Navy cannot have all the power of sea control.
For South Korea, in addition to air supremacy, the most important thing is sea supremacy.
Only by trying to weaken Japan's sea control can South Korea's ships be able to send combat troops to Dokdo.
Later, when analyzing the combat operations of South Korean submarines on the night of the 5th, the US Navy clearly stated that South Korea did not know the submarine tactics at all, and the wrong application of submarines was the direct cause of the disastrous defeat.
It is not correct to put all the responsibility on Park Tae-hyun.
South Korea's crushing defeat on the 5th was both subjective and objective reasons for Park Tae-hyun and the domestic situation in South Korea.
Ultimately, the "big power mentality" of the Korean people is the culprit.
At the beginning of the 211th century, when South Korea entered the ranks of developed countries, the "big power mentality" of the Korean people expanded rapidly. Many famous Korean scholars proposed the so-called "South Korea creates the world", "Confucius is a Korean", and "Since history, South Korea is the world's number one power" that should be used to numb oneself and deceive oneself.
Corresponding to the sharp expansion of the "big power mentality" is South Korea's incomplete state power.
Even national security is in the hands of the United States, why can South Korea become a "big power"? In history, no major power has handed over the security issues related to the survival of the country to another country for responsibility!
The continued expansion of the "big power mentality" has led to the Korean people's eagerness for quick success in their thinking. The arguments that prove that South Korea is the "center of the world" are the most direct reactions; the "big power mentality" has led to the distorted values of the Korean people, tampering with history and denying history are the most intuitive manifestations.
One idiom that can best describe Korea is: Yelang’s arrogant.
For any country, failure is not terrible. Even the most powerful United States today has suffered painful failures in history. As long as you can learn from failure, recognize your own strength, and adopt the right strategy, you can win in the next battle.
In this regard, Japan is doing much better than South Korea.
It was precisely because of the lessons learned from the East China Sea War that Japan showed amazing combat power in the Dokdo War and severely damaged South Korea with a devastating momentum.
Faced with impatient national sentiment, neither Park Tae-hyun nor others could change the fate of South Korea's defeat.
The battle on the night of the 5th also had a great impact on the attitudes of the Republic and the United States.
If South Korea performs slightly better, the United States will gradually increase its military aid to South Korea.
If Japan can be forced to attack South Korea's local military targets, the United States will have to send troops. With South Korea's performance so "bad", the United States will not only not send troops, but will also control the scale of military aid to avoid falling too deep.
The United States' attitude quickly became cold, and the Republic's attitude would not be much better.
Like the United States' idea, after discovering that South Korea is an "unable Ado", the Republic had to be cautious and avoid being dragged into the water by South Korea. When South Korea asked the Republic for military intelligence assistance again, Zhao Rundong greeted the Military Intelligence Bureau and tried his best to delay time to avoid South Korea using the military intelligence provided by the Republic to do "stupid" things.
At this point, even if Park Tae-hyun shouted the slogan "Saving and Death with Dokdo", South Korea's defeat had become a settlement.
On the 6th, the South Korean Air Force launched only one attack, but still failed to achieve unexpected results.
The remaining six "Sun Yuanyi" class submarines entered the Sea of Japan through the Tsushima Strait that day, but did not go to the war zone, but turned to the waters of Yuling Island.
Although South Korea's amphibious fleet arrived at Yuling Island in the evening of the same day, no one believed that South Korea could fight back to Dokdo.
On the fifth day of the war, all that South Korea has left is slogans and will to refuse.
